  2. Erasure code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erasure_code

    Erasure Coding; While technically RAID can be seen as a kind of erasure code, [5] "RAID" is generally applied to an array attached to a single host computer (which is a single point of failure), while "erasure coding" generally implies multiple hosts, [3] sometimes called a Redundant Array of Inexpensive Servers (RAIS). The erasure code allows ...

  3. Reed–Solomon error correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed–Solomon_error...

    Specialized forms of Reed–Solomon codes, specifically Cauchy-RS and Vandermonde-RS, can be used to overcome the unreliable nature of data transmission over erasure channels. The encoding process assumes a code of RS( N , K ) which results in N codewords of length N symbols each storing K symbols of data, being generated, that are then sent ...

  4. Error detection and correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_detection_and_correction

    A parity track capable of detecting single-bit errors was present on the first magnetic tape data storage in 1951. The optimal rectangular code used in group coded recording tapes not only detects but also corrects single-bit errors.

  5. Type erasure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_erasure

    In programming languages, type erasure is the load-time process by which explicit type annotations are removed from a program, before it is executed at run-time. Operational semantics not requiring programs to be accompanied by types are named type-erasure semantics , in contrast with type-passing semantics .

  6. EEPROM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EEPROM

    The first EEPROM that used Fowler-Nordheim tunnelling to erase data was invented by Bernward and patented by Siemens in 1974. [24] In February 1977, Israeli-American Eliyahou Harari at Hughes Aircraft Company patented in the US a modern EEPROM technology, based on Fowler-Nordheim tunnelling through a thin silicon dioxide layer between the floating-gate and the wafer.

  7. Instruction step - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_step

    An instruction step is a method of executing a computer program one step at a time to determine how it is functioning. This might be to determine if the correct program flow is being followed in the program during the execution or to see if variables are set to their correct values after a single step has completed.

  8. Eraser (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eraser_(software)

    Eraser is an open-source [1] secure file erasure tool available for the Windows operating system. [2] [3] [4] [5] It supports both file and volume wiping.[6] [2 ...

  9. Minimal instruction set computer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimal_instruction_set...

    Separate from the stack definition of a MISC architecture, is the MISC architecture being defined by the number of instructions supported. Typically a minimal instruction set computer is viewed as having 32 or fewer instructions, [1] [2] [3] where NOP, RESET, and CPUID type instructions are usually not counted by consensus due to their fundamental nature.
